Focus On Northampton

As the county town, Northampton plays a significant role in the local economy and is focal point of some of the region’s biggest developments and home to some of its most successful companies. At the same time, it offers opportunities for smaller businesses, from town centre retailers to those occupying space in a number of prestigious business parks and centre, to thrive and develop.

GDPR, the new law which transforms the use of personal data, will affect the way each of us do business.
There are those businesses who have already taken all the necessary steps to comply but there are others who still need to take responsibility. Failure to comply with GDPR can result in a fine of up to ?20,000,000 or four per cent of your global turnover, whichever is higher. There are also various criminal offences. Remember, the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) is likely to be harder on those companies who have done nothing.
